We all want to have more energy, motivation, improve cognitive skills, and adapt to our learning environments. Did you know that the foods you eat (or don't) also impact your mood and immune system? For all this, we need to fuel our brain and give it the right exercise. Join Cham in a workshop where you will go over the top 10 foods for brain health for children and adults, learn some movements and exercises to help build a better brain, and get some recipes and ideas of how to eat these foods while also creating habits to make long lasting changes in your life and health journey. Food plays a critical role in our current health but also in our long-term mental and physical health.
This workshop is for adults who are wanting to improve their mental and physical health, or for parents who would like to help their children eat a variety of foods for learning and memory. We will have food to sample, and also some time to make a brain based meals together!This class will include an informational session, cooking demo, and taste test.
